14 SOUTHERN BRANCH OF THE
Subjects of Instruction.
ARITHMETIC.-The fundamental processes of arithmetic are thoroughly considered, including common and decimal fractions, the metric system of weights and measures, simple and compound proportion, percentage, powers and roots. In this course Wentworth and Hill's High School Arithmetic is used as the text-book, supplemented by many practical problems.
Required of first-year Normal students.
3 hours per week, first half-year; 2 hours per week, second half-year.
ALGEBRA.-This course includes a thorough treatment of the fundamental operations ; use of brackets ; simple equations, factoring; highest common factor ; lowest common multiple ; simple and complex fractions ; involution and and evolution ; the theory of indices, with applications, surds (radicals), simple and compound, imaginary quantities ; quadratic equations ; equations in quadratic form ; simultaneous quadratic equations ; theory of quadratic equations ; indeterminate equations of the first degree ; inequalities; ratio, proportion, and variation; arithmetical, geometrical, harmonical progressions.
Hall and Knight's Elementary Algebra is the text-book used.
(a) Required of first year Normal students.
2 hours per week, first half-year ; 3 hours per week, second half-year.
(b) Required of second-year Normal students.
2 hours per week throughout the year.
PLANE GEOMETRY.-This course includes the general properties of regular polygons, their construction, perimeters, and areas; regular polygons and circles, with problems of construction ; maxima and minima, and methods for determining the ratio of the circumference to the diameter. The first five books of Wentworth's New Plane and Solid Geometry.
Required of all third-year Normal students.
2 hours per week throughout the year.
ENGLISH.-(a) This course consists of a thorough study of the more advanced principles of English grammar. It also includes elementary instruction in literature with abundant practice in simple composition.
Required of first-year Normal students.
4 hours per week throughout the year.

Contains the academic calendar, members of the board of regents, officers of the board, and officers and instructors. It also includes general information such as the location, building, apparatus and books, student expenses, chapel exercises, public lectures, and student organizations. Under courses of study, the normal course section states requirements for admission, entrance examinations, admission on certificates, and registration. The four year course shows classes taught and the number of recitations per week for each. The preparatory course section shows subjects taught with the number of recitations and the requirements for admission.
